As a mom of two wild-n-crazy boys, I consider myself somewhat of an expert on the subject of "timeouts". This blog is my way of taking a "timeout", because afterall, who doesn't need it every once in a while. Here, you will find stories about anything from motherhood to hot topics to just plain nothing. I hope you enjoy this blog and decide to share it with others. My goal is to make your day brighter, through humor and taking a little time out for yourself.

My sister's mother in law recently gave Andrew "The Superhero Starter Kit" book which came complete with red cape, masks, wrist guards, and emblems. He is SO into it!!! Today we must have played superhero for 30 minutes...that's a long time in the adult world! My role was to be someone in trouble and he had to come save/help me. Some of my "troubles" were; needing help gathering my monkeys and putting them back in their barrel, helping rescue vehicles get to an emergency, and helping to clean up (I liked this one!). In response to this last one, he said, "Wait, there's one rule. Superheroes don't clean up." I thought that was very cute!

He had a blast and has barely taken his cape off all afternoon. He brought it upstairs when he went to bed...I won't be surprised if he wakes up with it on :)

Thanks Claudia for encouraging Andrew to use his imagination! We are having SO much fun with this gift!!!
